Molecats has launched on Steam!
Molecats for the Win. This adorable, tough-as-nails puzzle game about a ragtag crew of mole/cat hybrids has won several awards; thanks to its intricate visual design, innovative gameplay, and lovable characters 🙂
Check out the trailer below:
THE (MOLE) CAT’S PAJAMAS!
Your job is to help the aforementioned Molecats secure ever-important foodstuffs (‘shrooms) and loot (relics). Guide them through dangerous underground tunnels by twisting and turning tiles – indirectly controlling where and how your crew tackles each challenge. Ruthless monsters and traps are lurking around every corner: Take your time and plan each move carefully to keep those Molecats smiling. Of course, finding the exit with both goodies and limbs intact is great – but stay on the lookout for achievements, secondary goals, unlockables, secret levels, and more. You never know what you’ll dig up …
“During Vidroid’s early years, we used to play a small Flash game called Continuity. This tile placement puzzle game reminded us of the types of board games we enjoyed as kids. We decided to have a friendly competition to come up with games based on tile mechanics. After some healthy experimentation, the result was Molecats – a game that encourages players to take their time with each puzzle.”
